Humans of Sartell: Quaranteacher Edition
04.13.20
Keeping up with the teachers and their quarantined activities.
“Considering all of our social lives have become that of a 90-year-old, I decided my hobbies should match. Over spring break, I began my first embroidery project (the beauty you can see oh so very close to my face). It turned out pretty well, and I’m excited to start my next one as soon as I can get my hands on another hoop.
I also started playing my Ukulele, but that sounds horrific, and I will not share. Maybe at a talent show in 2030 :)”
“In the Henning House, we have been playing a lot of board games – I’ve been taking no mercy on my children. They need to learn that winning is something earned, not an entitlement. Furthermore, they must understand that I am superior to them.”

“Who needs an Apple Watch? Smith just needs an Apple box, and she is set to teach!”
